CLEANUP they were working and it is poiated out that in these days of high prices the pay check is equivalent only to a grocery and rent receipt. Tulsa began to be concerned about the I. W, W. when enough dynamite to blow up the Tulsa Convention Hall was found under that building Tuesday morning following the Homer concert Monday night. Tulsa then determined to : force a show- down with the I. W. W. and wage the war to the last trench. For some time there have been threats from ‘men who were known to be members of the I. W. W., and it culminated finally in the blowing up of the home of J. E. Pew, wealthy oil man and head’ of the Carter Oil Company. The Carter Company is a big branch of the Standard Oil Com- pany. Pew has been active in the Liberty Loan ‘campaigns and dem- onstrated his patriotism on more than one occasion. When the Pew home was blown up, arrests followed. and seventeen men were fined $100. The trial was set for the day before yesterday, but the I. W. W. appeared: at the court house in such: large numbers that the trial was postponed until last night. When the trial began the Tulsa home guards were there in force, they did not have uniforms or rifles, but they had determination and revolvers in their pockets, and they were to see that the I. W. W. found out that Tulsa business: men expect to take care of the Tulsa oil fields. BRITISH IN HEROD’S TOWN Askalon, Where Crusaders Fought in 1009, Captured From the Turks.

W. ac- tivity in every section of the oil fields, where the agitators have been particularly active for the past sev- eral months. ; Heavy sales of arms and ammuni- tion from practically every city in the district was reported and it is feared ' clashes may result from the armed “vigilantes” and the I. W. W. While there has been no direct evi- dence of German money in the I. W. W. work, it is evident to everyone here in touch with the situation that the I. W. W. is getting money some- where.
